Unique Experiences in Napa Valley

Though it's easy to find reasons to visit Napa Valley at various times throughout the year, spring certainly offers something extraordinary. The warmth of the sun feels good after a winter indoors, the weather is mild and enjoyable, and nature is waking up for another glorious year.  It's currently mustard season in Napa Valley.  Everywhere you turn, fields are covered in the bright, friendly yellows of the mustard plant, commonly used as ground cover at local vineyards. It's a sign that winter is rapidly coming to a close, and that the beginning of the upcoming wine season will soon be underway.  Spring is a beautiful time to visit Napa Valley.  The crowds are still smaller than peak summer travel times, and there's plenty of fun and interesting experiences to enjoy while here.  Book your room at our Napa Bed and Breakfast today, and celebrate the start to another beautiful spring with us!

Whether you've been to Napa before or are a first time guest, it's fun to step outside the traditional box, and enjoy some of the more intimate and unique experiences offered throughout wine country.  There's so much going on here, which makes it easy to enjoy a truly unique experience each time you visit.  One of our top priorities at our Bed and Breakfast is helping you make the most of your time here.  Our knowledgeable concierge will help you plan a full range of tastings, tours, and activities.  In the meantime, here are a few unique experiences you may want to try the next time you're in Napa:

• Be Winemaker for a Day at Raymond Vineyards.  After your blending session, you'll be able to take your creation home.
• Enjoy wine tasting by bike, with the Sip and Cycle in Carneros wine tour with Gateway Adventures.  Napa Valley Bike Tours also offers exceptional two-wheeled tours through some of the best wineries in Napa Valley.
• Enjoy a private art gallery tour through Aerena Galleries & Gardens. There are a variety of experiences available, but the Art Experience with Bespoke Collection Wine Pairings is definitely recommended.
• You have to eat while you're drinking all of this great wine, too.  Try a Rooted Fork Foodie Tour, a walking tour through some of the best restaurants in downtown Napa.
• Why not get out on the water while in Napa?  Try a cruise down the Napa River aboard the Napa Valley Wine Yacht. All cruises include both light fare and delicious wines. You could also go it yourself and do an unguided (or guided, if you prefer) trip down the Napa River with Napa Valley Paddle.
• Enjoy the incredible views of nearby Sonoma at Viansa.  They have a wonderful variety of private tastings and experiences around the vineyards, or you can relax on the terrace with a glass of wine and a picnic lunch.
• One of our longtime favorite experiences in Napa is the Napa Valley Wine Train; an exquisite dinner and wine pairing adventure well-worth your time.
